Sanctuary Worship – Sundays at 10 a.m. – Sunday Sanctuary Worship is our morning worship service of prayer and praise. Through Scripture and sermons, prayer, music, and sacrament, we gather to grow in faith, find comfort and support, enjoy fellowship, and glory in God’s presence through the beautiful music of our Chancel Choir and organ. Children are welcome to worship in the sanctuary or in the Kids’ Zone in the narthex. Nursery care is provided. God’s “children” of all ages are welcome participants. We are in mission each week as we gather canned goods for the Westside Food Bank. The fellowship of Coffee Hour following the service is an informal time to connect with friends old and new.

simple church –Sundays at 5 p.m., Chapel– we gather to cultivate calm, centered and compassionate lives which are possible by living by these rules: do no harm…..do good….stay in love with God. opportunities for worship & sacrament.

Messy Church – 2nd Saturday of month, 4:30 p.m., Simkins Hall & Chapel – An intergenerational worship experience where we learn about God’s love through crafts, activities, story and a shared meal.

I suppose many of us are starting into this new New Year with our very own list of resolutions, mostly having to do with diet, exercise, budget-keeping, and so forth. If so, I wish you well with all of those noble thoughts and with the determination needed to carry them forward well into the year.
